James sent me this link to a
‘letter to the editor’ generator. I think that’s kinda cheating, so I’ve used the form to send this letter:
“Dear editor,
there is an automatic letter generator at http://www.georgewbush.com/Economy/WriteNewspapers.aspx?AgendaID=2. This generator is allowing people to spam your letters page without the courtesy of thinking about the issues and your editorial content themselves.
You might like to visit this page and take note of the generated paragraphs so you can avoid publishing letters with this content.”
I used a San Francisco postcode, and it was sent off to the San Francisco Chronicle, The Independent, the San Jose Mercury News, S F Weekly and The Urban Latino News.
